Children are monsters. Annoying, selfish monsters. This could easily be a screenshot of an episode dealing with how people hurt each other, and how hard it is to get friends back after an offense.

Visually, this is a treat. The composition is simple, and elegantly leads the viewer from Sweetie Belle to the bag to the other two. The action lines on Apple Bloom and Scootaloo form a huddled A shape with the book. The backgrounds are clutter-free, and the circle on the floor symbolically isolates the two from Sweetie Belle.

The characters are well drawn, and on-model. The blush and the eye dilation on Sweetie Belle are perfect.

The book text required a click to zoom to read, but that's okay because it heightened the drama. The only things I think could use work are Sweetie's right hind leg and Scootaloo's left; the hooves on both are not quite on-model, IMO.

A stunning piece, which could easily be the cover to an MLP:FiM comic book.

But no seriously, I was more commenting on the commenters vicariously murdering Apple Bloom and Scootaloo, and having their hearts broken. The picture itself wasn't too overly dramatic.

Plus with their reactions, it doesn't seem like what in the diary is too emotionally destroying. Those two wouldn't giggle if they were reading heartfelt love confessions, because though they might not understand the importance of privacy, they're still fundamentally good ponies. So their reaction makes it look like Sweetie is the one overreacting. Not that it's okay to read her diary, but they're probably reading things like "I said I ate two muffins yesterday but really I ate three" not things like "if I eliminate Apple Bloom before she suspects then nothing will stand in my way of locking Silver Spoon in my secret bondage dungeon." Sweetie is just taking it seriously because she doesn't know that it won't lead to dire consequences. Like Fluttershy, when she said "She might banish you from Equestria. Or throw you in a dungeon. Or banish you and then throw you in a dungeon in the place that she banishes you to!"

I mean, at least from personal experience, the worst anyone could have read from my diary was how I hated some bullies who pushed me around and told me I was shit. I'd be upset if the bullies read it, but otherwise it's pretty harmless stuff. Might even have gotten me help before it was too late, if someone had read it.

: Apple Bloom, you're grounded! No crusading, no playtime, and no supper!: I'm sorry, Applejack! It won't happen again! I promise: As for you, kid, we're going to have a talk with your parents! You're going to get a lecture! That was totally UN-COOL!: I didn't mean to, Rainbow! I'm sorry!

Apple bloom and scootaloo!! I will find you! And i willlll killl yhooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my friends have done that to me before and my mom but that's mostly because I left it laying around and my sister found it and she got into trouble for reading it, yea she got into trouble. so I feel sweetie belle's pain, cute picture though I love the expressions

You know what's worse afterwards they posted some of it online, as it happens I'm actually reading it now."Dear DiaryI think Spike is so cute, but whenever he comes over he's only ever hear to see Rarity. Maybe he'd like it more if I was more grown up, so I'm going to start wearing make up and smoking, I might even get a tatoo."
